==Emulation==
==Emulation==
An Emulator is a program that allows console video games to be played on Personal Computers. The name ''emulator'' literally refers to the fact that the console's video game playing behavior is emulated. Super Nintendo Emulators, such as {{w|Snes9x}} and {{w|ZNES}}, allow games such as {{CT}} and {{RD}} to be playable on computers. Generally illegal, as the games played upon them are illegally acquired copies, use of emulation is permissible when one owns original copies of the games played on them and has no reasonable way to play the game on the original console, or wishes to emulate the game to receive screenshots. Legal specifics regarding {{w|Video Game Console Emulator}}s differs with each project, and the Terms of Use for each emulator is also detailed by the creators.
